The Long Family!

Meet the Long family!
Aren't they pretty? I had the pleasure of photographing them at Falls Park on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Everyone was so gracious and nice; even when I misread my calendar and showed up 30 minutes late! Ahhh! But, what can I say? I am human and they were so very kind to forgive me! We had a great shoot & the kids did great! Thank you so much for allowing me to photograph your sweet family!

My Claire Bear is Nine Months Old!






Here are my sweet babies! My oldest, Cade is 6 and my youngest, Claire is 9 months! We went to Converse College the other day and utilized their beautiful campus for our shoot. Cade found many trees to climb and I found beautiful Magnolias and leaves on the ground to use as our backdrop!
Thanks be to God for the blessings of children and a wonderful Fall show to photograph them in!

Enjoy their show!

Sweet Miss Kynlee





Look how big my sweet girl Kynlee is! She is growing up so quickly and is so pretty! Her big brown eyes just suck you in when you look at her. She is super sweet! She wasn't too excited about having her photos made but once we were outside she was a new woman! She had her 'babies' with her and she did so well! I always love photographing her because she is just so cute and such a sweet little girl!
Don't they all look adorable in their snowflake pj's!
Love it!

The Swanlunds.....Logan & Parker





Aren't these two so stinkin' cute? They did so well at our shoot and we had never met before! I am always amazed at how well some children do when they meet a stranger with a big camera around her neck and then in their face! I love sweet Lauren's precious smile and Mr. Ryan's gorgeous eyes. These two love each other so much.....remind them of that mom when they are fighting one day as teenagers!

The Leonard Family






I love photographing families. And, some of the time, the bigger the better! Why? I guess it is because it reminds me of my big and crazy family. The Leonards were so gracious and allowed me to shoot all we could think of. We were able to squeeze in so much in such a small window and the kids (and adults!) did great!

What a heritage Mr. and Mrs. Leonard have established!

The Brothers Garrett




I truly love my job. These are three good reasons why. These boys are absolutely precious and are so dear to me. I feel like we are related somehow; I'm not kidding! That is how much I love to photograph these three! Their love for each other is unmistakable! I love how two of the boys have blue eyes and one has brown. I love how sweet Porter has red hair! I love the silly expressions Cal makes and I love how Miles is such a great big brother!

Thank you so much for allowing me to photograph these three men in training! =)

The Scott Family





I love when I meet new people out of nowhere! My family and Susan's family happen to be having Mexican at the same restaurant one evening. We get to talking and Susan invites me to a MOPS meeting at her church. I begin to attend and love it and in getting to know one another, we decide it is time for a photo shoot. So, one cold morning I meet Susan and her precious family at their home. Now, Colin was ready for his shoot but William was not 100% sure. That is until Dad found a beetle on the ground (deceased of course) and proceeded to place him on my shoulder while we were photographing the boys. To both of the boys' delight, this strange girl who had walked into their home now had a dead bug on her! Revenge was sweet!

Happy 90th Birthday, Mrs. Holland !!!




I had the privilege of photographing my friend's family at his grandmother's 90th birthday party! Wow! Can you just imagine all she has seen? I Googled 1919 and found these things that happened the year Mrs. Holland was born....The first Miss America was crowned, the Treaty of Versailles was signed that ended World Word I with Germany, US President Woodrow Wilson suffers a stroke that leaves him partially paralyzed and A&W Root Beer was introduced. Just a few fun facts for you to think on as you watch her birthday slide show.

Mr. Patrick Brierton






Isn't Patrick adorable? His large round cheeks and gorgeous eyes are enough to make you want to squeeze him! Then, you factor in his blonde curly hair and you are even more in love! I was able to photograph Patrick and his family, even his grandparents, on a windy Saturday morning! In fact, it was the day of his First Birthday party! Happy Birthday Patrick! I hope you had a fun day!
